Reviews and Ratings

Kevin O'Rourke rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

I loved the 2013 vintage of the Tinpot Hut Sauvignon Blanc. What I have found is that the wine improves with each vintage as the winemakers Fiona and Hamish with the assistance of Matt Thompson really strive to produce a magnificent wine. The 2015 vintage is one of the best in my opinion and you can get some in the UK at http://www.wineman.co.uk/product/tinpot-hut-sauvignon-blanc-marlborough which is a superb resource as there is no minimum order. This bucks the trend withe most merchants who want 6 or 12 bottles as a minimum
Heather Wall - CS; WSET Advanced rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Light-bodied, grassy, tropical , passion fruit, honeydew melon, herbs, catty. This is a vibrant and palate pleasing Savvy B from the Marlborough region of New Zealand. Balanced refreshing acidity and a long citrus finish. This wine won Gold Medal - Sommelier Wine Awards London 2014
Excellent salad wine or patio sipper
Tasted: October 2014

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
